Assessment of MRI Geometric Distortion for Radiotherapy Planning
Odnovol, M.; Lykova, E.
Show abstract
Background: MRI is widely used in radiotherapy planning due to its high soft-tissue contrast, but geometric distortions can compromise target localization accuracy. Objective: This study aimed to develop an accessible method for assessing geometric distortion in MRI using two phantoms - a commercial anthropomorphic phantom and a custom-made phantom fabricated from ABS plastic. Approach: CT imaging was used as the reference standard. Distortion was assessed through linear measurements of periodic structures in a DICOM viewer, followed by statistical analysis. Significance: The study evaluates the clinical impact of distortion on radiotherapy planning and proposes a cost-effective solution for routine quality assurance in resource-limited settings.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
